Trying to conceive
First things first, I would like no comments on my age, and no comments regarding whether or not I am ready to conceive because only I know whether I am, and I haven't come here to ask about my age.
Sorry if that sounds rude.
Basically, I have been trying to conceive with my partner for quite some time now.
A few facts regarding me and my health status:
Age - 19
Health - Perfect, never really suffer with sickness or colds etc
Menstrual Cycle - Perfect, always on time, medium flow for 5-7 days.
I cannot understand why I am unable to currently conceive, I do understand from various research that focusing on conceiving whilst having intercourse can affect the chances by quite a high amount, however although sometimes I do find I concentrate on that a little too much, most of the time I completely forget because I'm having to good an orgasm!
My partner is 22, and he also has very good health and is generally a very healthy person.
We have intercourse fairly often, sometimes we get so frustrated with not being able to conceive that we give up for a week or so, but we do normally try to ''baby dance'' on a regular basis, we don't do it every night, as I understand this can decrease fertility, and we don't normally skip loads of days, or ''save up sperm'' because that also decreases fertility.
What do you think the chances are that my partner or I cannot conceive? (Considering we are very healthy, and not exactly old).
The main question is, does anybody have any advice that may help us conceive? Thank you for taking the time to read.

Razhie is absolutely right.
Beyond seeking medical advice, have you looked into the conception kits? Generally, they come with about 10 ovulation tests, so that helps point you towards the right times.
The reason you may not have conceived yet is just sheer probability. At your most fertile, the probability of intercourse resulting in pregnancy is about 9%. It lowers to about 1% otherwise.
Sounds strange, doesn't it, when there are so many unwanted pregnancies around the world.

We are not doctors.
If you are young, and healthy, and have done your internet research to the best of your ability you are beyond needing 'advice', you are ready for medical guidance.
Anything else is just wives tales and superstition. If you are seriously concerned about this issue, take it to a professional.
